Ok, last question...I think.

How much HP can the XB handle?

If stock is around 3hp, will the drive train {diff/cups/bones/etc} handle 5hp+?

I already broke 1 front diff cup with stock set up.

That's all driving style. We don't drive our 1:1 cars WOT all the time. Well maybe some do.. LOL

I have the OBR 7.5hp 27.2cc FMLR in my XB no problems yet.

stay with the 4 bolt. you can hop up the top end later and not have the worries of poping the 2 bolt. I have broken 3 -2 bolt heads and some of that was because of too much HP! bigger cc the better torque for your 4WD.

I have soo much power the pinion gear pushed right out the rear gear box. I also broke a few drive cups. I now have the 7075rc gear boxes front and rear on my XB. You will have to up-grade alot of things if you want to upgrade your power. Pay to Play!! what up grades do you have now?

So I got the dt1 filter, tripple stage...did not know it's glued together?

Thought it was in layers, for cleaning.

I've been using pj1 filter oil...should I continue to use this?

I heard tgn has their own oil?

Any special clening tips?
